  This cottage is spacious, comfortable, nicely appointed, and has a great location near the beach and a fun restaurant/live music venue. The owners are great to work with. It is the perfect quiet, sunny get-away spot - we go every autumn.

  Our family of six from Michigan rented this cottage twice, both times in April. We plan on coming back. We love Tybee Island. The cottage is small but had everything we needed. We made most of our meals in the cottage (large kitchen) and went out to dinner a couple of times (Sting Rays). We had two in each bedroom and our two youngest teenagers slept on the sofa sleeper. Our two youngest wished for better blinds to block out the back yard lighting triggered by the automatic sensors. Great location, 5 to 10 minute walk to the beach, restaurant and souvnier shops. We liked the small deck/driveway area for morning coffee or afternoon cookouts. The cottage is less than a 30 minute drive to Savannah. If you decide to rent this cottage, here are a few of our favorite things to do: fishing on one of the piers, go to the beach, rent a bike and ride on the beach, walk the beach especially the south end. After a day at the beach, have a cookout, try some Georgia shrimp. During your stay, be sure to vist the pier, light house, Ft. Pulaski, Beafort, and Savannah. Have fun!

  This cottage was perfect! It was so clean and well maintained. We were comfortable and had everything we needed for a pleasant stay. Everything is in walking distance of this location, the beach, the shops, and the restaurants. The photos on the website did not do it justice; it was much nicer in person! The outdoor shower is amazing. The people we rented from were very nice and easy to work with, she spent lots of time answering questions and concerns we had and the information she sent us was complete and accurate. We would definitely recommend "A Lovelly Place Cottage" to a friend; we hope to stay there again this year.

  It's true this little house is very charming and is located close to everything on Tybee. However, we had so many frustrations with this house. The shower in the master is really a "mini" shower and the outdoor shower was dirty and in disrepair. Inside the shower was a broken pallet with rusty nails. The house itself was very dirty when we arrived (even by my lax standards) - toilets were very dirty as were walls, doors and doorknobs. There were nails protruding from the floorboards and the blinds were broken. The house was very bare-bones. We had to purchase toilet paper, paper towels, salt, pepper, hand soap, etc ourselves and there wasn't even a pen or piece of paper in the house. The beach chairs were heavy and rusty and the sand toys mostly broken. My biggest disappointment was how the owners responded to my concerns - with excuses but no offers of compensation. When I asked for a refund, I got no response. I'm still waiting to hear from them. This house is NOT as advertised.

  Owner response: We have been renting our little cottage for many years now. We always address each and every concern with thoughtfulness and fairness. Our telephone number is available to all of our guests as is the telephone number of the cleaning service and the maintenance staff. We use a wonderful cleaning service that, not only cleans our house spotlessly, but also provides each renter with a cute beach bag filled with necessities. Our guests may need to replenish the supplies depending on the length of their trip. Our cottage is small, not bigger than 900 square feet with two bathrooms. One bathroom has a full size bathtub and the other bathroom has a small shower ~ there simply is not room for a large shower stall. The outdoor shower is completely new, it’s beautiful! Although the old shower was wonderful it did need to be updated. Unlike many outdoor showers it is completely enclosed and has hot and cold running water ~ it feels so good after a nice day at the beach. We do provide new beach chairs and beach towels at the start of each season, due to the salty air everything rusts very quickly! There are several beach stores within walking distance from our cottage if you would like to purchase your own beach supplies. Broken beach toys would possibly have been left there from a previous guest. A Lovelly Place Cottage is truly a beach cottage, complete with wainscoting and wide plank pine wood floors; they are soooo charming! In the drawer filled with pens, pencils, telephone books and other things, there is a hammer and a nail set. The beautiful wide planks shift with the weather and at times may need to have the nails pounded in, it’s easy! Our maintenance service is available if you need help with this. The person who helps rent our house does a fabulous job of screening our guests to ensure that everyone is happy and safe. Unfortunately we have had one incident; some things in the house were broken due to a “rowdy bunch” of boys. The repairs were made as quickly as possible, including new blinds on all of the windows and new flat screen TV’s. Tybee is a beautiful island and our cottage is cozy and comfortable. Our guests are happy and many of them choose to stay with us year after year. We appreciate everyone who stays at A Lovelly Place cottage and we hope that you will consider spending your vacation with us too.

  We recently stayed at this charming beach house and were thoroughly enchanted by it. I originally went online to find an affordable place on Tybee but also one with all the comforts of home. We really lucked out with our choice, We were close to everything. The beach was only a minute or two away and shopping and restaurants close by for evening strolls around the best part of the island. The home had so much character. We loved the original bead board walls and the wonderful old floors. I personally loved the extra large bathtub and everyone slept like babies on the comfortable beds. We had such an easy time renting this property and we were extremely pleased with the extra amenities we were offered. We want to return already ! Thank you !

  My now fiance and I had the opportunity to stay at Lovelly place in March of 2008... though Tybe was beatiful and the house more the accomadating it was the people we worked with that made our stay so perfect. My fiances grandfather had a stroke 2 days before we were set to leave. Lovelly place people worked with us and though we were two days late getting in they were more then accomadting. The house is beautiful, the location is wonderful, but its truely the people that make it so amazing! You are still in our hearts and we appreciate all you did, we plan on coming back for our marriage in March 2011!
